Sorry. When you mentioned "Adobe XI" (giving a company and version number but not a product name), I jumped to the wrong conclusion. I see now that the free Adobe Reader program has a version XI these days. I haven't used Adobe Reader in quite a while, so I do not know whether it might have the tools to do what you need or not.

Is there a way to show a PDF in Preview and do what he suggests?
Yes. That is exactly what Malcolm was suggesting. Here's the relevant quote from the page to which he supplied a link:
- Open both PDF documents.
- For each document window, choose Thumbnails or Contact Sheet from the View menu.
- Drag each page’s thumbnail image from its original document to the other document.A rectangle encloses the other document’s thumbnails when you drag over them. If you don’t see a rectangle, the pages won’t be included in the PDF file, but they do appear in the other document’s window.
The page remains in the original document and is copied to the other document.
In your case, you apparently also want to remove the page(s) from the original. That would be a separate step, also described on the linked page:
- Choose Thumbnails or Contact Sheet from the View menu.
- Select the page or pages to delete.
- Choose Edit > Delete.
When you delete a page from a PDF document, all the annotations on the page are removed as well.
